So nice of you to plan this in sync with the Scottish October school holidays ;-) - I hope to make it again next year.

I'm not sure about that, but I would make the point that if you're in the UK, these speakers and talks can usually be witnessed first hand (and often globally first) at the Catfish Study Group convention. Of course, if you're in the US, then catcon is where it's at - but as you're in the UK...

I'd looked into the CSG convention recently, but not sure if I can make it, I will have to look into it again.
Thanks Teresa
